Abstract | Dogs frequently suffer from traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). Most cases of SCI have a favorable prognosis but 40-50% of dogs with paraplegia and absence of nociception do not regain ambulatory abilities, eventually leading to euthanasia. Microglia and infiltrating macrophages play a crucial role in inflammatory process after SCI. However, little is known about microglia/macrophage phenotypes representing a potential target for future therapeutic strategies. In the present study, the microglia/macrophage phenotype was characterized by immunohistochemistry in the morphologically unaltered canine spinal cord (10 control dogs) and during acute and subacute SCI (1-4 and 5-10 days post injury, 9 and 8 dogs, respectively) using antibodies directed against IBA1, MAC387, MHC-II, lysozyme, EGR2, myeloperoxidase, CD18, CD204 and lectin from |
